Notes to Accounts of Coventry Coil-O-Matic (Haryana) Ltd.

Mar 31, 2013

I) Account Reconciliation/Confirmation in respect of certain accounts of Vendor''s have not been received and they are subject to confirmations and reconciliation.The management is of the opinion that adjustment, if any arising out of such reconciliation would not have material effect on the financial statement of current year.

ii) Due to multiplicity of processes and items, it is not possible for the Company to maintain record or movement of stock in process on the shop floor on perpetual basis. The Company however, physically verifies such stocks at the end of year and valuation is made on the basis of such physical verification.

iii) The company is engaged in the manufacturing of Springs, which in the context of Accounting Standard 17 is considered the only primary business segment. However, secondary segment reporting is performed on the basis of location of the customer. All the business assets of the company are situated in India.

iv) Secured Loan

The Company is contesting in various Courts and Tribunals the exaggerated claims by the assignees of the various Term Loans availed between 1990 and 1992 from a consortium of 3 Financial Institutions (FIs) namely ICICI, IDBI and IFCI. The Company availed Term Loans of Rs. 9,25,66,743 between 1990 and 1992 from the consortium, with ICICI as the lead Institution. However the total amount so received was only Rs. 8,94,02,900 and the balance was adjusted against Interest payable. Due to recession in the market and accumulated losses which were partly occasioned by high interest rates and partly by time over-run and cost over-run, and despite best efforts of the promoters and the management, the Company turned into a sick company and was referred to the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) vide Reference Case No. 197/97

A Rehabilitation Scheme/Package formulated and agreed upon by all the FIs was approved by the BIFR on 27-12-1999 wherein the dues were freshly determined and fixed as Rs. 1178 lakhs to be paid by 31 -03-2002.

The Net Worth of the Company turned positive and after considering the Balance Sheet for the year ended on 31st March 2000, the BIFR closed the reference case on 04-10-2001.

As per the package, one of the sources of finance to repay the FIs was Working Capital facilities. Since the Company was under RBI''s defaulters list, no banks were willing to extend the required working capital limits. This was duly brought to the notice of the BIFR. However, despite the best efforts, the Company could not arrange the working capital limits thereby leading to delayed repayments to the Financial Institutions.

In all, however, over the years, the Company made a total repayment of Rs. 12,86,76,952 out which Rs. 11,01,88,705 was made under/after the BIFR Scheme to the consortium members. The major portion of this was paid to the lead institution, ICICI, as part of approval for the BIFR Rehabilitation Scheme/Package. As the Company did not have the details of amounts adjusted by and amongst members of the Consortium out of the various repayments made by it and since, ICICI had filed a winding-up petition in the High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh on 08-10-2004 for recovery of Rs. 3,29,92,998, the Company, after October 2005, preferred not to make any further payments to the FIs since the matter was sub-judice. In 2005, the RBI released a Scheme / Guidelines for One-Time Settlement of loan accounts of Small and Medium Companies. Since the Company fulfilled the criteria for availing the benefits under the said Scheme, which is binding upon the Banks and FIs, the Company re-calculated the payments made under the said Scheme, and after adjusting the amounts already paid to the consortium members, the dues towards the consortium came out to be Rs. 2,62,126 only. The Company accordingly made an application under the OTS Scheme to the FIs before the deadline of end March 2006 and offered to pay the said amount of t 2,62,126.

However, the Financial Institutions did not settle the Company''s matter under RBI''s OTS Guidelines and demanded unreasonably high amounts.

In the meanwhile, ICICI assigned its debts to Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd. (KMBL) on 25-04-2005, and both IFCI and IDBI assigned their debts to Dhir & Dhir Asset Reconstruction and Securitisation Company Ltd. (now known as Alchemist Assets Reconstruction Company Ltd. (AARCL)) on 05-03-2008 for Rs. 3,04,00,000 and 12-08-2008 for Rs. 4,11,50,000 respectively.

Thereafter, the assignees filed various Applications under section 19 of The Recovery of Debts Due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 1993 for recovery of debts as follows:

- In DRT-II, New Delhi by KMBL on 23-01-2007 for recovery of Rs. 4,72,06,961

- In DRT-I, New Delhi by AARCL on 11-12-2008 for recovery of Rs. 133,70,25,581 for dues calculated on the IFCI debts.

- In DRT-I, New Delhi by AARCL on 21-05-2012 for recovery of Rs. 93,15,19,000 for dues calculated on the IDBI debts. The Company has also filed counter claims of more than Rs. 500 crores on both KMBL and AARCL.

The final adjudication of the debt liability is yet to be completed.

AARCL (formerly D&DARSCL) also issued notice on 12-12-2008 under Section 13(2) of The Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act (SARFAESI), 2002 demanding an amount of Rs. 144,46,60,272 against dues calculated on both IFCI and IDBI debts. With an application filed on 29-07-2009 u/s 14 of the SARFAESI Act with Dy. Commissioner, Rewari, they made an attempt to take possession of the Company''s Assets. However, with timely actions, the Company has obtained from the Hon''ble Punjab & Haryana High Court, Chandigarh Stay Order against any coercive action, if any, taken under SARFAESI Act for taking over the possession of the property in dispute.

The Hon''ble Punjab & Haryana High Court, Chandigarh had through interim orders dated 21-01 -2011 and 11 -03-2011 directed the Company to deposit a sum of X 5 crores in the High Court, which the Company complied with.

As per further directions of the Hon''ble High Court vide order dated 09-08-2011 the sum of f 5 crores was appropriated as follows:

- Rs. 3 crores to Alchemist Assets Reconstruction Company Ltd., and

- Rs. 2 crores to Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd.

Apart from the aforesaid payment of ^ 5 crores the assignees were also given the liberty to recover further sum of Rs. 13.50 crores from the sale of the extra land appurtenant to the factory premises. This had further been re-affirmed by the Hon''ble Supreme Court with modifications vide Orders dated 07-05-2012,30-07-2012 and 01-03-2013. As per the directions of the Hon''ble Supreme Court on 01-03-2013, the Company has given physical possession of a part of the property comprising of approx. 10 acres of land to Alchemist Assets Reconstruction Company Ltd. on 08-03-2013.

Since this was only an Interim Order and the amount is yet to be adjudicated, no provision for differential Interest has been made by the Company, nor has any effect been given in the Fixed Assets Schedule of the Accounts. The matter is expected to come up for hearing for final orders soon.

Also, in compliance to the directions given by Hon''ble Debts Recovery Appellate Tribunal, Delhi (DRAT), the Company depos- ited with the Debts Recovery Tribunal -1, Delhi (DRT-I) a sum of Rs. 51,80,619, which was received from the District Revenue Offteer-cum-Competent Authority, Rewari as land acquisition compensation for acquisition of approx. 0.69 acres of the Company''s land for widening of the Delhi-Jaipur NH-8 Highway.

However, the Company is of the view that after applying the Reserve Bank of India One-Time Settlement (RBI OTS) Guidelines and after adjusting amounts already paid, physical possession of part property given and amount deposited with the DRT, the Company is of the opinion that nothing will be due and payable by the Company to the Lenders/Assignees. On the contrary amounts may become recoverable for which claims have been filed by the Company.

However, the Financial Institutions did not settle the Companys matter under RBIs OTS Guidelines and demanded unreasonably high amounts

In the meanwhile ICICI assigned its debts to Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd (KMBL) on 25.04.2005. The Company was constrained to file Civil Suit No. 1569/2006 in Delhi High Court in August 2006 against ICICI, IDBI, IFCI and KMBL for declaring that RBI circulars in question are applicable to the Settlement of NPA dues of the Company and that in consequence thereto, the Company is liable to pay only Rs.2,62,126/- to the consortium and to restrain each of the FIs from taking any coercive steps for recovery against the Company till the judicial determination of alleged dues by the Honble Court.

(D&DARSCL) for Rs.3,04,00,000 and Rs. 4,11,50,000 respectively. D&DARSCL filed an application in DRT-I, Delhi for recovery of Rs. 133,70,25,581, for the dues calculated , on the IFCI debts. The same is being contested by the Company.

D&DARSCL also issued notice under Section 13(2) of SARFAESI Act demanding an amount of Rs. 144,46,60,272 against dues calculated On both IFCI and IDBI debts. The same was duly replied to by the Company, raising vital questions of fact and law.

On 29.07.2009 D&DARSCL filed an application u/s 14 of SARFAESI Act with Dy. Commissioner, Rewari in attempt to take possession of the Companys assets.
